The Baptized Life Series

Contributed by D Marion Clark on Aug 13, 2012

Remember in the midst of your trials who your savior is. Jesus Christ is the victorious Lord. Through his death he broke the bondage of sin; he conquered death itself. Through his resurrection he has subdued the evil powers so that they cannot harm his

A Humble Life Series

Contributed by D Marion Clark on Aug 18, 2012

This Is Eternal Life

Contributed by Tim Diack on Aug 22, 2012

We are tempted to define eternal life in light of a duration - it goes on forever. Jesus defines eternal life differently - He describes it in terms of a relationship with Himself. And that's important for us to consider because it is one thing to know

This Is Eternal Life - John 17:3 - August 19, 2012 As a young boy I had one of those plastic bow and arrow sets where the arrows have the little red rubber suction cups on the end. How many of you had something similar as a kid? I enjoyed playing with them a lot and I think I probably ...read more

The Abiding Life Series

Contributed by Guy Mcgraw on Jun 4, 2012

Would you describe your spiritual life as an abiding life? Is your Christianity something you do at specified moments such as Sunday mornings or is it something you live out each day?

We are going to look at a passage in 1 John when John the Apostle gives a challenge regarding the kind of lives those he was writing to were living. This challenge helps us 2,000 years later to understand what the Christian life is supposed to be about. Would you describe your spiritual life as an ...read more

Choose Life

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 13, 2013

"Choose life": an exhortation that belongs not only to the outset of the Christian life, but to all our choices in this life.

CHOOSE LIFE. Deuteronomy 30:15-20. On more than one occasion I am sure, “Choose life” (Deuteronomy 30:19) has been used, not inappropriately, as the text for an evangelistic sermon. The context, however, suggests that these words were not originally addressed to people who did not know the LORD ...read more
